Isn`t it ludicrous women can be king/queen preists in heaven and rule with jesus in heaven,yet be silent and submissive to males in the congrgations ?

is this just another example of the bible being inconsistent/contradictory ?

or is it screwed up wt.theology.. what`s your thoughts.

smiddy.

Why will there be no sisters in heaven?

Because (reading Revelation 8.1) when the lamb opened the 7th seal there was silence in heaven for about a half an hour...

interesting Rumour

by Slidin Fast in

i heard a rumour today to the effect that there is a new gb member in his late twenties/early thirties.

i stress that this is unsubtantiated and requires confirmation or quashing.. can anyone confirm or definately deny it?.

Amelia Ashton

A female member of the GB would surprise me.

Every so often I receive a very uncomplimentary email thru my website from a JW. Want to read it?

their email address is: xxxxx.

and their message is:.

you probably would say, 'i didn't abandon him, i can still serve him on my own.

A last ditch attempt to defend the troof before she finally wakes up herself, methinks. I hope so anyway.

Experience regarding Elders being spirit appointed

i was told recently about a situation where an elder did not get recommended to serve upon moving to a new hall.

but, something internal politics happened in the old hall and he was not recommended.

Is Richard Dawkins an ostentatious acrimonious supercilious pusillanimous calumnious censorious vituperative querulous embittered obsessive and bombastic bully?

richard dawkins closes down his free-thinking/free-thought site (www.richarddawkins.net) for 30 days to reconfigure it 'because too many morons were contributing drivel' (he doesn't put it quite like that!

) he is then surprised because those self-same contributors call him everything under the sun (i won't repeat the names flung at him on our ultra -refined boards).

he now wants the site more or less 'peer-reviewed' (by analogy with papers to learned/scientific journals having to be vetted by vips).

8 years and above and it is amazing. Lots of diagrams and images but I loved the section on evolution best.
